Simply 25

Tank update

Almost finished with the fishless cycle and should be adding fish in the next week or so. Thinking a pair of storm clowns to start with then figure out other fish next.

I picked up a nano skimmer on Amazon not really looking for it to work as a skimmer but mainly would like to add CO2 scrubber to boost PH.

Picked up an Apex setup with Trident off FB Marketplace for a deal so couldn’t resist. Package also came with two XR15 Gen5 Blues and a Dos and some Nero 3’s as well. So those are going to be used in the build. I’m going to start with one xr15 but once I start adding Acro’s I’m gonna put both up so I can blanket the tank.

I’m trying to be patient hoping this tank can become a mini Sps dominant tank.

Glad to see your tank is cycling with no issues! Good luck with the new fish!
 
Looking good. That skimmer is so tiny its kinda cute lol. Which skimmer on Amazon did you get?
Yes is the IOAIO it even comes with a little dc pump. Was about $80 so nothing crazy was really finicky with getting setup without a ton of micro bubbles but it has settled in now and doing fine.
 
Trying to figure out how to place everything to make it functional. This is what I came up with so far. I know cord management could use to help but everything is up off the ground and has its own place. Waiting on the 3dprintedreef dosing containers to come in and we will be ready to rock.
